Using SYSGEN to Copy the Files
You must use SYSGEN to copy configuration groups. Using other methods to
copy configuration files removes key elements and corrupts the files.
To copy a default configuration group into the configuration group
CONFIG, follow the instructions outlined below:
1. Activate SYSGEN.
Entering SYSGEN activates SYSGEN's global module.

2. Specify the base group on which to operate.
Specify the group that more closely matches your system. Enter:
sysgen>BASEGROUP basegroupname
3. Modify the configuration if necessary.
If your system requires a configuration other than that provided
by default, use the IO configurator to modify the current base
group to meet your system's requirements. Refer to the chapter in
this manual, that discusses the types of changes that you must
make. After making any changes, hold them (issue the HOLD command
in each configurator used to make changes), and return to SYSGEN's
global module.
4. Save the configuration to disk as CONFIG.
After you have completed making changes, if any, save the
configuration to the CONFIG group. Enter:
sysgen>KEEP CONFIG
5. Generate a system load tape (SLT) if desired.
To create an SLT that contains the new configuration, use CONFIG
as the base group, and save it to tape, as discussed in Chapter 3
.
6. Use the new configuration and restart the system.
If you modified the configuration and now desire to implement it
on the system, shut down and restart the system.
To shut down the system enter:
:CTRL A
=SHUTDOWN
7. The system responds by listing shutdown messages:
_________________________________________________________
| |
| |
| Shutdown of operating system begins. (Shut 1) |
| Shutdown of user processes begins. (Shut 2) |
| Shutdown of jobs & sessions begins. (Shut 3) |
| Spoolers notified of a shutdown. (Shut 16) |
| Shutdown of system processes begins. (Shut 4) |
| Shutdown system manager begins. (Shut 5) |
| Shutdown of operating system complete. (Shut 6) |
| |

8. Reset the system using RS or TC. Restart it by specifying
NORECOVERY.
ISL> START NORECOVERY
9. Prepare the system for normal production.
You may wish to check certain items to ensure that the system is
ready for production. These items can include:
* jobfence parameters
* limit parameters
* LAN status
